I was traveling on train one day and I almost faded when I had this crazy nausea and I didn't know that it was coming from my stomach problems. And I went to doctor and he said first we will do bacteria testing. I was confident that I don't have helicobacter pylori ( I will talk more about it in some of my other posts for that), but I did have it doctor prescribed me 7 days treatment. This treatment believe me is exhausting as hell. I barely finished my last two doses because the amount of strong pills I was taking was crazy. And eventually those treatment kill my bad bacteria but also killed every other good bacteria in
pylori bacteria do not exhibit any symptoms. However, when the infection causes ulcers then the symptoms exhibited include abdominal pains which are most severe when the stomach is empty. Most patients describe it as a gnawing pain that is intermittent. This kind of pain can be relieved by taking antacid medication. It is advisable to see the doctor when such pain is continuous and severe. Treatment with antacid drugs will not cure the infection as they act only as a pain relievers. Other symptoms of H. pylori infection include nausea and vomiting, bad breath, lack of appetite, excessive burping and feeling bloated. However, these symptoms are also caused by several other conditions and could also be experienced by healthy people who are not infected with H. pylori. If these symptoms persist or if you notice a black color or/and blood in your feces or vomit it is important to seek further medical advice (Yamamoto, Friedman & Hoffman,

The effects of a disorder with insulin can be very grave because this hormone is very important to the body. First I would like to discuss Diabetes Type 1.

In this article, you are informed about a disease that is occurring more often in our society. It is commonly referred to as “heartburn” but is more appropriately named acid reflux disease or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Most people suffer from this disease, but think nothing of it.

Acid is produced naturally in your stomach to help you digest food and to kill bacteria. This acid irritates the stomach lining so our body produces a natural mucus barrier which protects it. Sometimes this barrier may be damaged thus allowing the acid to damage the stomach causing inflammation, ulcers and other conditions. Other times, there may be a problem with the muscular band at the top of the stomach that keeps the stomach tightly closed and this allows the acid to escape and irritate the oesophagus. This is called 'acid reflux' and can cause heartburn and/or oesophagitis. Proton pump inhibitors such as omeprazole stop cells in the lining of the stomach from producing too much acid. This can help prevent ulcers from forming or assist the healing process. By decreasing the amount of acid, they can also help to reduce acid reflux related symptoms such as heartburn.
